Tikosyn is also indicated for the conversion of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter to normal sinus rhythm. Tikosyn has not been shown to be effective in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

Because Tikosyn can cause life threatening ventricular arrhythmias, it should be reserved for patients in whom atrial fibrillation /atrial flutter is highly symptomatic.
